How to set a fallback watermark

Conditional watermarks (display rules, field labels) only render when their condition is met. A fallback watermark covers every photo that would otherwise be delivered without one.

Steps

1. Create a generic watermark (your logo, no display rules, no field labels), or open an existing one.
2. In the editor, click Settings and, under Fallback, tick Use when no other watermark applies.
3. Click Done, then Save. The Watermark tab now shows a Fallback badge on it, and the warning about conditional watermarks without a fallback disappears.

Good to know

• How MyRun picks the watermark for a photo: every regular watermark whose conditions match is rendered; only when none matches is the fallback used. A fallback never appears on top of another watermark.
• A fallback still honours its own Apply to sizes and display rules, so keep it simple: no rules, no field labels.
• You need a fallback when you use bib-based display rules (they only match in a participant's own search results; while browsing a full album no bib is known) or field labels (they need the participant's data).
• The Watermark tab marks watermarks with display rules Conditional and those with field labels Personalized, and shows a warning as long as no fallback is set.
